3-Day Docker and Kubernetes Security Hardening in NYC

This course teaches microservices application Security with Docker and Kubernetes. You will learn how to secure micro-services applications developed with Docker and Kubernetes. You will learn how to handle the challenges of container security and be able to select the right tools to help with that challenge.This course is a combination of Concepts and hand-on workshop. At the end of the training course, attendees will know how to secure Docker, Kubernetes infrastructure, be able to select the right security tools and technologies from the CNCF landscape and be able to secure microservice applications in a production environment.
